Lazy cat - any ideas please

Recommended Posts

We have 2 cats - ex rescue of about 5 yrs old. My ginger tom is a frisky active fella but his sister a tabby is a lazy. I know cats have a reputation for sleeping a lot but the main problem is she doesnt seem to groom herself :shameonu: Thanksfully she is not long haired - we are on vets advice combing her daily. She has a lovely silky coat but her undercarriage as my OH calls it is like velcrose and has everything stuck to it :notalk::wall: The vet has no ideas and I do apply EPO as she had dry skin. Teeth are ok - he didnt suggest blood tests - and his opinion is that she is just lazy. OH suggested we get her a treadmill :clap: Joking aside - any ideas? we chuck her out into the garden but she just finds a shady nook and goes to sleep :wall: Anyone else had a lazy cat would like advice

Cats do vary a lot in their activity levels. My old cat Toffee was always out and about and would sleep outdoors whenever the weather was fit, whereas my 2 rescue cats that we have now are much more lazy especially Scamp, but she does groom herself well enough. Ziggy is a bit more active particularly in the evenings and she is a bit OCD about her grooming.

 

My mum has an old siamese male who has never cleaned himself very well and now she has to sponge him down a few times a week. I think it is much like people some are more bothered about personal hygiene than others :roll:
